Hi Romain, Sorry it's taken so long to respond.
I've installed your selective-loopback package v0.1 (which I note isn't on your web page anymore), configured a (mediawiki1.8) entry, and found and loaded the fuse module (which I didn't notice the first time). I created diff and docs (mount) directories, owned www-data:fuse, but when I run "/etc/init.d/selective-loopback start" I get the following when I do an "ls" as root or any other user: ===================== drwxr-sr-x 2 www-data fuse 4096 2007-03-02 23:06 diff ?--------- ? ? ? ? ? docs ===================== ... except www-data, when I get: ===================== drwxr-sr-x 2 www-data fuse 4096 2007-03-02 23:06 diff drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 752 2007-02-02 22:32 docs ===================== Inside the docs directory, as www-data: ===================== ?--------- ? ? ? ? ?

However, root still sees the directory as above and cannot look into it. This means that apache complains on a configtest (and would with a restart): ===================== apache2ctl configtest Warning: DocumentRoot [/var/www/hosts/wiki.dreamtime.org/docs] does not exist Syntax OK ===================== I'm not sure where to go from here - any thoughts?
